Lucas Fernando arrives in the UFC as the reigning LFA light heavyweight champion and a former LFA middleweight champion — only the third two-division titleholder in that promotion's history. The 29-year-old from Rio de Janeiro trains under Brazilian MMA legend Pedro Rizzo and has inherited his coach's trademark: brutal body shots and leg kicks off a kickboxing base. He rides a four-fight winning streak with back-to-back first-round knockouts in his last two title fights. He came up short on the Contender Series in 2023 against Cesar Almeida, rebuilt his career at 205 pounds, and now finally gets his Octagon debut.
